I am tall, average build with brown hair and green eyes. I have worked on black holes, LIGO, gravitational wave detectors, cosmology, dark matter and numerical relativity. I teach Physics at university and like to take my students beyond their wildest dreams. I like hiking, swimming in the sea, and rock climbing. I can ski and play the guitar a little bit, bur not very good at it. My favorite food is volcano fried chicken in Timanfaya, Lanzarote. I speak 7 languages and flew 1000 times.
